Hey my friend, what's this going on? I'm a little bit empty, my assurance is gone. Washed up on the sands of a tranquil sea, She gave me life, but now the ocean she sells me. It's like a fable with the wrong last line a crystal ball with two fortunes inside. They say the sun still shines when you close your eyes, well, my spirit still flies, but only sometimes.
So I'll spend some time in my habitual places, sit and stare at the same ugly faces. Sometimes it's so much that it overwhelms me I can't change anything, is that how it's supposed to be? I'd feel fine if I could just get away but there's no place to go, so what's it matter? I'll just be another ghost in the bones of this city, wander these street, barren of pity.
I see myself in fluid shadows. Shifting images my relations scattered. Sometimes it brings the light from me and I am struck blind, I am set free.
You confined me deep within my faded eyes I'm through with wearing this disguise.
Girl, I want you and your beautiful soul. You're like a blazing fire in the blistering cold. You're every place that I've never been and everything that I'd do over again. So don't treat me like a misplaced kiss you get the same thing anyone gets. I guess that's what it means to be free, well, I love the idea, but rarely the reality.
Sometimes it brings the light from me and I am struck blind, I am real.
You confined me deep within my faded eyes I'm through with wearing this disguise. I'll leave a trail three moons wide, One more degree of freedom I'm ready to try.
